the CuAAC activetemplate reaction not only is it demonstrated to be possible to use smaller macrocycles, but, surprisingly, that smaller macrocycles lead to higher yields of rotaxane product (see scheme). The synthesis of “small” functionalized [2]rotaxanes showcases this as a method for the production of materials with potentialapplications in molecular electronics, drug delivery, sensing, and enantioselective

In this proof‐of‐concept study, an active‐template coupling is used to demonstrate a novel kinetic self‐sorting process. This process iteratively increases the yield of the target heterocircuit [3]rotaxane product at the expense of other threaded species.
